2018 PIITSBURGH INTERNATIONAL AUTO SHOW
WELCOME LEITER FROM COUNTY EXECUTIVE RICH FITZGERALD
On behalf of our nearly 1.3 million residents, we are proud to welcome you to Allegheny
County and the 2018 Pittsburgh International Auto Show, which is always one of our favorite
annual events. The fine people at the Greater Pittsburgh Automobile Dealers Association
(GPADA) work extremely hard to make this such a tremendous, affordable and fun family
experience.
With an expected attendance of more than 50,000 people, the four-day show is annually
one of the region’s most popular happenings, and it’s easy to understand why. Along with the
opportunity to admire hundreds of new, classic, and exotic vehicles, you’ll have the chance to
get in the driver’s seat at the Toyota Drive Center, ride in a race-car simulator, and check out the
powerful 2018 Ford F-150 Police Responder. There’s also plenty of entertainment options for
the kids, including meetups with local sports mascots, balloon art, auto racer autographs, and
much more.
While you’re here for the show, I hope you take advantage of all this wonderful region
has to offer. Allegheny County is in the midst of an amazing renaissance. It boasts a diverse
and welcoming community, and it’s one of the best places to live and visit in the country. I
highly encourage you to experience our entertaining attractions, vibrant arts scene, affordable
shopping, award-winning restaurants, and world-class accommodations. Whether you live here
or are stopping in for the first time, there’s always something new and exciting to enjoy.
We are thrilled to host you for the auto show, and we look forward to showing off the
Pittsburgh region to residents and visitors alike. We also hope to see you again soon -maybe in
a new car you find at the show.
